What do you gain from participating in SABA DOET?
Being a part of SABA DOET will give a positive impulse to the island as well as to you, your company, school, or whomever you volunteer with. On top of that, you are setting a great example and boosting your image. It can do wonders internally as well; it can motivate employees, broaden horizons, and present new networks. The media buzz surrounding such a well-publicized event is likely to result in positive media coverage for your company or group. Students will gain valuable experience when helping out as (first time) volunteers.
On top of that, it will surely be an incredibly inspiring and fun day! Volunteering works both ways: as the participating organizations can reach goals that day that they might not have been able to achieve without your help.
Suggest a project
You can contact us if you would like us to suggest a project. You may already have an organization in mind that you would like to help out, or you could come up with ideas based on the causes your friends and family support. You may want to lend a hand to a foundation your neighbor takes an interest in, or to the care home where a parent or differently abled child is a resident. Maybe you heard about the needs of a day care center or sports club from a friend who volunteers there. These are all good places to initiate a project or look for odd jobs that need doing. You yourself will in this case be primarily responsible for organizing the ins and outs.
NOTE: only the organization itself however can register the project online with us and only it would be the beneficiary of any funding from the Oranje Fonds. Organizations that act as volunteers themselves are not eligible for financial assistance.
